Guincho made the world aware of Portugal`s surf potential, after photos of huge surf were published in Surfer Magazine `67, September issue.
The stunning bay is located near Cabo da Roca, the most western cape of Europe, and therefore is a swell and wind magnet. Windsurfers and kitesurfers from all over the world call Guincho home due to the classic and consistent conditions. When the wind finally calms down Guincho becomes a surfers dream too. Bar do Guincho is a relaxed, but rather expensive hangout, with excellent facilities for surfers with families.
